Jane, there is a change in the
TEC architecture to allow non-TME events to take advantage of the SCE on
the gateway. This is done through the gateway receiver which receives
events through sockets and passes them on to the TEC gateway SCE. Since
you have not upgraded toTEC 3.9 and have not configured your
gateway to enable the gateway receiver, and James says "Non-TME
or not nvserverd will try to use the SCE on the gateway"
this is probably why your events have stopped flowing up to TEC.

Jane -
You are asking me TEC questions that I cannot answer for certain.
My understanding was that the SCE code was now part of the EIF library
functionality that we as an adapter link with.
But I could be wrong about that.
I see references to State Correlation in the TEC User's Guide. When
they talk about the Java API that's what they are talking about. And
the also use the term State Correlation in Appendix C.
All that NetView is doing with this is stuff is providing the Service Impact
events. That's how they are generated.

NV 7.1.4 and TEC forwarding / Correlation Gateway |
Thanks James - interesting. Presumably this is only true if nvserverd
and the sce are on the same box (as is my case)??? Otherwise, I don't
see how nvserverd will ever find the sce??
Do you know of anypointers for documentation in this area?
Thanks again,
Jane
